Nike Sacai LDWaffle July Release Guide: How to Buy and Store Link List

07/11/2019~ JVG

The world of high fashion is in an interesting state right now in the middle of 2019, with streetwear taking the spotlight, seeming to eclipse traditional high fashion.

Tastemakers are taking notice, and Nike is a leader in this movement, with recent high-street fashion collaborations with the likes of Off-White not only flying off the shelves but going for huge amounts of money above retail, making resellers a profit.

Sacai is a Japanese high fashion band that is another name capturing Nikes attention, and we are looking forward to a release coming out shortly of three pairs of the Nike x Sacai LDWaffles.

This time around, this batch of LD Waffles will have three colorways, all of which have a release date of Thursday, July 18th 2019.

The official colorways for Sacai x Nike in July 2019 are the following:

Pine Green/Clay Orange/Del Sol/Sail

Let’s check out each of the three colorways that are available and understand why or why not they will have resale value.

Retail price varies slightly

The retail price actually varies slightly across retailers, from $155, $160, and up to $180 partially because they’re dealing in different currencies (the European retailers seem to have the more expensive pairs.)

Although it’s hard to predict which of the three will perform best, we will do our best pulling data from sites like StockX to back up our numbers (all the pricing pictures are from Stockx.com).

At the end, we’ll throw in some direct links so you know how and where to buy, in addition to some cool pics we’ve seen across the web and IG of these Nike Sacai LDWaffles.

Resale Value Projections:

Each colorway will have different levels of desire and thus different prices.

All are expected to sell out incredibly quickly though, and for beginners, the best bet is to check out every site we mention at the end of this article, and even though it’s possible you’ll miss out on this drop, don’t give up because over time luck will be on your side.

Retail Price: $155-$180 (depending on retailer)

Resale Value: ~$400-$500

The most colorful of the three seems to be the most expensive: the Pine Green pair, which for some reason is on StockX under a slightly different name, had 1 sale at a crazy $2500.

We don’t expect standard resale to be this high, but we do think that this colorway will hold value at the top between the three of them, with lows of $400 and an average somewhere around $500.

Being the loudest of the bunch, this will draw the biggest looks from fashionistas and streetwear fanatics alike.

2. Nike x Sacai LDWaffle: Summit White/White/Wolf Grey/Black

One of the most subltle of the three, and probably the least likely to be recognized as a hype pair of sneakers to the casual onlooker, the grey still holds solid value.

The last actual sale as of July 11th 2019 was $700, but buy prices are at $1500+ and buyers are bidding as high as $650 per pair.
